Learners will learn to create policies and procedures rooted in strengths-based, trauma-informed, and culturally relevant approaches.

The program aligns with accreditation requirements but is applicable to learners working within accredited and non-accredited organizations.  The program guides participants through developing and implementing healthcare policies and procedures within Indigenous communities and organizations.

Interactive tools will be used to enhance engagement and collaboration among participants.
